The Detroit Tigers: the Rodney Dangerfields of baseball.
Sigh.
The Detroit Tigers: don't have a damn thing to do with it.
What really amazes me is that people push for yet more playoffs, when clearly they have trouble marketing the playoffs they've got.
But the doomsday that is Neifi trumps all. Have there been reports that Omar Infante has attacked Leyland with a bat yet?
Are we sure Leyland will put such a behemoth into the lineup?
Neifi goes 0 for 5 with 4 K's.
Neifi hits for the cycle prompting a deluded Lou to sign him up as a starter for whatever team he has next season.
Neifi goes 1 for 5, the one being a quiet single to right.
Neifi doesn't hit, but turns several routine double plays, prompting an orgy of praise from Brennaman as a "guy who may not hit as much as you want, but there is NO ONE better at turning two in clutch situations."
Neifi's not one to strike out, is he?
Assuming that Mets/Cards at 8:00 on Fox is a given, which argument is least problematic?
1. They can't have the games on at the same time! I can't watch them both, and the other game is on a lesser channel that not everyone has!
2. The AL Game can't be on earlier! Anyone who would want to watch it is at work (especially on the West Coast), and what the heck kind of marketing involves putting a top game at a time no one can see it!
3. The AL Game can't be on later! Anyone who would want to watch it is asleep (especially on the East Coast), and what the heck kind of marketing involves putting a top game at a time no one can see it!
Seems like, if you're going to have games on weekdays, you're going to run into one of these three complaints.
As a comparison, in Canada, Sportsnet is showing the ALCS in the Ontario and Pacific markets, and the AAAA-LCS everywhere else. I get Seattle's Fox affiliate.
BTW, for those who took off early: yesterday's terrible All-Star line belonged to Steve Swisher.
They're not planning to tune in before the third inning, anyway.
You jest, but guess what inning it was when I got home from work last night?
I miss two-hole Swisher®, CF
The Void®, RF
Odessey and Oracle®, DH
The Chasm®, 3B
Jay Payton has no cryptic nickname®, LF
General Burnside®, 1B
Porcelain Mormon's Stand-in®, SS
Untitled (How Does It Feel)®, 2B
Professional driver on a closed course. Do not attempt®, P
They had to take someone off that Cub team, though Monday would have been a better choice considering that Swisher was the third catcher.
That should be: guy who may not hit as much as you want, but there is argueabley NO ONE better at turning two in clutch situations.
You're *sooooooooo* good-looking!
Behold! The Tigers' lineup!
1. Curtis Granderson (CF)
2. Neifi Perez (SS)
3. Placido Polanco (2B)
4. Magglio Ordonez (RF)
5. Carlos Guillen (1B)
6. Pudge Rodriguez (C)
7. Craig Monroe (LF)
8. Alexis Gomez (DH)
9. Brandon Inge (3B

Thanks, Jim. After today's events, I really needed some comic relief.
Casey could miss rest of ALCS with calf injury

It looks like Verlander is going to need to throw the 2-hit shutout I'm predicting.
Yeah, I was surprised it wasn't Neifi at that time. Is Neifi actually a better hitter than Santiago? If so, is Santiago the worst hitter this side of the South Riverdale Baseball League?
Oh...my...
Let's hope Leyland has summed up some Mayo Smith mojo.
He's going to bring Granderson in to play shortstop?
Leyland: "He can bunt, he can hit and run, he can do some things. ... He’s liable to swing at one one foot over his head and he’s liable to swing at one two feet for a triple, The thing I love with Neifi Perez is energy. He plays with a passion. He loves to play. He’s a smart player.’’
He's a T.I.M.O.
Gameday has Granderson flying out on a pitch a foot outside.
As I recall, Gameday had the triple off Mussina on a pitch well out of the zone. Granderson is cool.
And make an effort, Pudge.
How fast have we decided the Fox gun is? 3 mph?
How fast have we decided the Fox gun is? 3 mph?
At least. I would say 3-5. Fernando Rodney does not throw 100. He just doesn't.
IIRC, Girardi got on as a Cub when they needed a last-minute replacement and he was the the first guy they could reach on the phone.
I think so. He was topping out on their gun at about 89-90.
GameChannel went crazy too. When one goes nuts they all do ... must come from the same source.
He's still not really able to articulate all his thoughts - no good manager would or should be able to, to some degree - but he's a far, far sight better than anyone else Fox has hired.
I'd rather have three Piniellas in the booth than Brennaman and Lyons. At least then I could tolerate having the volume up.
Keep getting your popups, Justin.
I thought I read somewhere that the gap between reality and reports increases as the speed of the pitches increases. So it could be 2-3 in the 80s, but 3-4 in the mid or high 90s.
Like I said.
Gameday seems to have straightened itself out, much like Verlander.
Three drunk chimpanzees would be better than Brennaman and Lyons.
